Chamberlain is a city in Brule County, South Dakota, United States. It is located on the Eastern bank of the Lake Francis Case dammed section of the Missouri river, close to where it is crossed by Interstate 90 highway. When you think about an adventure what comes to mind? Is it navigating the waters of the Mighty Missouri? You can do that! Is it walking, running or riding on the bike paths on either side of the river? That is also possible! Are you interested in learning about the history and native culture of the area, attending a rodeo, hunting and fishing or playing golf? You can do all of that and more!
Were you aware that in 1992 a 16 foot, 78- million-year-old sea lizard know as a Mosasaur was unearthed east of downtown Chamberlain on King Street about 20 feet from the highway? That sparked paleontologists to set up at a “dig” annually during the summer months in our area! If you are camera enthusiast, there are plenty of opportunities to see wildlife – deer, turkeys, pheasants, eagles and hawks. All of these opportunities abound. Included in this publication are the many events that take place throughout the year. There are campgrounds, parks, picnic shelters and spectacular views to relax and enjoy!
Once you adjust to the beauty of the area, there are plenty of opportunities to visit museums, restaurants and specialty shops offering a variety of one-of a-kind experiences. You may find yourself saying “whoa this is nice!” So take some time browsing, I believe it will be worth your while.
